Jauncey's Electrons. One storm centre is an able, bald, self-critical physicist named George Eric MacDonnell Jauncey, who adorns the faculty of Washington University at St. Louis. Recently at a convention of scientists in Indianapolis, Dr. Jauncey described experiments which convinced him that the rest-masses of beta rays (fast electrons) shooting out of Radium E were variable (TIME, Jan. 17). He passed his electrons through a velocity selector, then estimated their masses by their behavior in electrical and magnetic fields. Since then Dr. Jauncey has bombarded the Physical Review with numerous communications backing up his announcement...
